I am going to completely honest here. I nearly purchased an Ipod instead of my mogul. I was in the Apple Store across the street from where I work and was about to pull the trigger. My Cousin has one and loves it. I played with it for several hours and since I had never owned a PPC since the original TMobile Pocket PC which was a pile of crap I really had no idea what i was even missing. I made a smart choice and took the Mogul and Sprint for a test drive and never looked back.

Why arent more people aware of how great ppc's are? Its about image. It goes to the same issue we are having with drivers and what not. Many people think pocket pc = business user. There isnt any panache to owning a pocket pc. Everyone that I show my mogul and show what it can do wants one. There is a reason for that. They rock. Its M$, HTC, Sprint all of thier faults for not showing that it is "cool" or "hip".

I will not bash Apple as a happy (until the last month) shareholder. I my portfolio loves droves of mindless people wanting what is cool. I also wont bash apple because they do in fact make quality products. The Iphone has tons of potential. If they throw a 3G radio on it. Open it up for development hey the sky would be the limit. There is a reason so many IPhone themes are floating around out there. I love my Ipods. I have used others but always end up with Ipods cause they are great.

I dont see why people get so incenced about IPhones or apple in general. They are pushing the bar. I think all of you recognize how stagnant WindowsCE/PocketPC/Mobile has really been for a long time because there was really nothing forcing it to innovate. RIM is guilty too. But along comes the iPhone and now everyone has to step up thier games and innovate.

The iPhone is good for Windows Mobile.

Do like I do just show them how cool your phone is when it can tell them what song is on the radio and then turn around and download a torrent or Show them that your phone can do everything an iphone can do and with much faster internet. I have converted so many people that just didnt know that Pocket Pcs did what they did.
